On the first day, the camp mates were given a secret mission to make Peter Helliar's entry into camp the worst day ever without him noticing. During his entry into the jungle, the camp mates had to guess his identity incorrectly in a celebrity guessing challenge, ensure that he picked the shortest straw so that he had to retrieve a key from a snake-filled box and to call him by the incorrect name throughout his first night. The reward for completing the challenge was pillows for the camp.
In episode 5, Adam and Woody were given the opportunity to win their campmates' luxury items, by finding out each of their camp mate's biggest luxury splurge without them noticing. They were successful in completing the mission and the camp received their luxury items in the evening.
In episode 8, Debra and Nathan were separately given the opportunity to win their camp mates' crackers and Vegemite, by staying 3 metres away and close to each other without the other noticing. They were successful in completing the mission and the camp received the crackers and Vegemite in the evening.
In Episode 11, the campmates watched a video of a pig which had to choose between a cheesecake and pavlova, the video was paused and the camp mates had to guess which the pig would choose, and if guessed correctly they would receive the specific dessert. Everyone except Nathan guessed cheesecake, the pig chose the pavlova and both desserts were thrown out. Nathan wasn't happy…
In Episode 14, Debra was given a mission to get the camp some treats. It was given by the former and most recent king of the African jungle, the renowned chef : Miguel Maestre. She had the task to make 3 of the other campmates say the word 'Miguel'. She was successful and received the camp some scrumptious snacks and delicious drinks. Everyone praised Debra, but some were confused as to how Deb tricked them using her " forgetfulness " . Even after all the drama, the camp was happy to have some yummy desert.
In Episode 16, the campmates were distracted by dancers, former campmate Dicko holding TimTams, rangers carrying egg & bacon rolls, a ranger in a ghillie suit and a schoolgirl playing a recorder in order to win a massive treat for camp. They had to ignore the obvious. They received alcohol and snacks in the evening as a reward for ignoring everything.
